Another Face? Plus some carving.

Peggy Sue has been rather neglected for some time and I decided it must have been due to my last paint job I did on her face.


It just wasn't right...


So off it came!


With some trepidation and my Schoenhut book in front of me...


I tried again.


Part the way through...


Still needing some touch ups I think, but leaving like this for a few days to see how Peggy Sue likes it.




Hmmm...I wonder.


Yesterday I got out my wood carving equipment and started working on a Hitty doll for a friend.



This wood is very difficult to carve so the going is slow.

In fact I may swap to some different wood.


A little progress, and then I had to call it quits as I am pacing myself in order to avoid too much pain.
